"Nangong Xier." Bai Jile looked at the woman in purple in front of him, stretched out a finger, and cut off the purple sword energy.
"Bai Jile!" Nangong Xier gently waved the sword in her hand.
“Junior sister, why are you here!” Li Yanqi’s hand holding the ancient scroll was still shaking slightly, “Nonsense, quickly get out of the formation! If anything happens to you, how are we going to explain to our second senior brother down there!”
"Junior sister has grown up. I can't always ask the senior brothers to stand in front of me." Nangong Xier suddenly said to the trapped Zhou Zheng, "Fifth Senior Brother, Shi Shui—"
"Ruthless." With a shout, Zhou Zheng and Nangong Xier drew their swords at the same time and immediately cut the infinite body into two pieces. Zhou Zheng walked out and looked at Nangong Xier.
Nangong Xier smiled and said, "Fifth Senior Brother, I haven't seen you for many years."
Zhou Zheng brushed off the scattered mechanisms from his body and smiled: "Master, when did you become one of the Six Gentlemen?"
"Teacher once said that if we understand something in our hearts and are confident that we can become a gentleman, then we can be called a gentleman. I think I can become a gentleman at this moment." Nangong Xier raised her sword, "Because at this moment, I will stand in front of my brothers for the first time, in front of everyone!"
"Junior sister!" Li Yanqi said anxiously.
But Nangong Xier immediately turned around, put one hand on the ancient scroll, and closed the cover directly: "Third Brother, don't think about dying to save the academy. I don't agree. You can't die, and the academy can't be destroyed."
Li Yanqi smiled bitterly and said, "Do you have the final say on this matter?"
Nangong Xier nodded: "I can. From childhood to adulthood, haven't I always had the final say in the affairs of the academy?"
As the ancient scroll closed, Zhou Zheng and Li Wai lost their fierce aura. They both retreated to Nangong Xier's side, their faces showing fatigue. Li Wai sighed and said, "Once the heavenly book is closed, it will be difficult to open it again."
Zhou Zheng's hand holding the sword trembled uncontrollably: "Junior sister, you always act so impulsively."
"Two senior brothers, you have done enough. Leave the next thing to me." Nangong Xier looked ahead. The two infinite bodies of Wen Xie from Qianji Academy were destroyed, and his real body was still hiding in the dark and dared not show up. The deputy Wen Xi was seriously injured. The two guardians, the ghost-faced man and the female-faced man, were also exhausted by Zhou Zheng. Bai He on the other side was also seriously injured by the ruler. Only Bai Long seemed to be fine. Together with the people from Xingxiu Academy who were breaking the formation, the joint efforts of the three gentlemen of the academy to stop them were quite fruitful.
The only thing is that Bai Jile, the strongest one, did not really participate in the battle from beginning to end.
But Bai Jile is the biggest decision maker on the outcome of this battle to attack the mountain.
Bai Jile looked at Nangong Xier and said calmly, "Now that the Heavenly Book is closed, the three-person formation set up by the three gentlemen has been broken. The fifth and fourth gentlemen were able to possess far greater power than usual in the formation, so you were able to stop us at the mountain gate with just three people. Now that the formation is broken, the three gentlemen will all suffer an unknown backlash, and all the previous efforts will probably be wasted."
Nangong Xier snorted coldly: "Master Bai, you are very familiar with the secrets of our academy."
Bai Jile seemed to have seen some strange aura in Nangong Xier. He narrowed his eyes and asked in confusion: "Miss Nangong, compared to our last meeting, you seem to have learned some powerful skills?"
Nangong Xier replied to Bai Jile coldly: "You can try."
"Okay." Bai Jile leaped up and pointed at Nangong Xier.
"Be careful of his fairy guidance!" Li Wai warned.
Nangong Xier, however, showed no fear and swung out with her sword. This sword was still the Shi Shui sword technique created by Nan Yulou, one of the second best masters in the school. Just like back then, after so many years, this was still Nangong Xier's favorite sword technique.
Bai Jile pointed his two fingers at the head of the Liangren Sword, then closed his eyes and tried to use his Immortal Guidance to break Nangong Xier's sword energy, but to his surprise, his Immortal Guidance did not find any point in this sword energy that could be defeated. This sword energy can be said to be perfect, without any flaws.
Bai Jile opened his eyes: "You actually..."
"Yes." Nangong Xier raised her sword lightly, her purple clothes fluttering, and directly knocked Bai Jile away, "As you wish!"
Bai Jile flipped over in the air, and after landing on the ground, he still took three steps back before stopping. Once his Immortal Finger collided with the opponent's true qi, he could immediately find the "heart" in the opponent's true qi, and then break it with one finger. In the world, there is only one kind of internal force that is flawless, and there is no so-called "heart".
That is the origin of all the internal skills in the world—the Ten Thousand Dao Heart Gate.
"I didn't expect that Priest Xue would pass on the Wandao Heart Gate to you. The mask has obviously been destroyed. How could you learn it?" Bai Jile said in a deep voice.
“Why are you talking so much?” Nangong Xier waved her sword in dissatisfaction and chased after him.
At this moment, Bai Long flashed in front of Bai Jile and swung his sword to meet him: "Miss Nangong, our previous duel has not yet come to an end."
"Well, I'm very sorry that the battle back then ended in failure. You are a good swordsman." Nangong Xier leaped up and slashed at Bailong with a sword.
Bai Long was in a trance. When he looked up, he couldn't see clearly where the sword came from. He just felt as if he was in a sea of sword energy. There was sword energy everywhere around him and there was nowhere to hide. He hurriedly danced wildly with the sword in his hand, forming a barrier around himself.
Only the crisp sound of swords colliding was heard, and Nangong Xier's figure changed unpredictably. Only a few people in the field could barely see her clearly, while Bai Long waved his sword to defend himself and could not even take a step forward.
"This is what it looks like when the Wandao Heart Gate is used in conjunction with sword moves. It is endless, without beginning or end, and it only ends when the opponent dies." Bai Jile murmured in a low voice. He looked at Bai Long who was beaten by the sword energy and had no power to fight back, and frowned slightly.
"Brother!" Bai He said anxiously, no longer caring about his own injuries, and planned to rush forward to help Bai Long.
But Bai Jile waved his hand to stop him: "Nangong Xi'er is no longer the Nangong Xi'er who fought you to a draw in Shanglin Palace that day. Now, her strength is far superior to yours. Even your brother is no match for her. You went there just to die."
Bai He gritted his teeth and said, "I have never stopped practicing swordplay over the years."
Bai Jile looked at Bai Long and said in a deep voice: "Perhaps I can understand why Nan Yulou risked his life to protect her back then."
